All these studies employed the cumulate Grade Point Average (GPA) as a common indicator of the student's performance and linked it to physical aspects as well as personality attributes (Waples and Darayseh, 2005). The following section provides brief reviews for these studies.…”

The purpose of this study is to investigate factors affecting student performance in Arab Open University-Kuwait branch. To achieve this objective, all graduate students during the academic year 2009-2010 were examined. The graduates were 566 students, consisting of 353 female and 213 male students. The data were analyzed by using Ordinary Least Square (OLS) multiple regressions. The outcome of the analysis revealed that the Grade Point Average (GPA) of the student is affected by age, score of the high school and nationality. In addition, the results revealed that younger students perform better than mature students and non-national students perform better than national student. The results further revealed that significant gender differences exists, female students perform better than male counterparts in line with a significant number of previous empirical studies. More importantly, the results of the analysis indicated that marital status plays a significant role in determining the student's performance by confirming that married students perform better than non-married counterparts.

“…A partir da análise de diversos estudos (BERNARDI; BEAN, 2002;CAMPBELL, 2007;CHEUNG;KAN, 2002;DEVADOSS;FOLTZ, 1996;EIKNER;MONTONDON, 2001;FERREIRA et al, 2014;FOX;BARTHOLOMAE, 1999;WEINSTEIN, 1999;MONTAÑO et al, 2009;WAPLES;DARAYSEH, 2005), percebe-se que a variável desempenho anterior aparece em todos como sendo uma variável que influencia positivamente o desempenho atual, ou seja, sustenta-se a hipótese de que o aluno que tem bom desempenho tende a ter esse desempenho ao longo da sua vida escolar. No Quadro 3, estão descritas as principais contribuições desses estudos.…”

Agradeço aos membros da banca de qualificação, Prof.ª Nálbia e Prof.ª Edvalda, pelas valiosas contribuições dadas a minha pesquisa! Agradeço especialmente ao professor Dr. Janser, por todo apoio no tratamento estatístico, pela presteza em sempre me atender, esclarecer dúvidas e me auxiliar no que fosse preciso! Muito Obrigada! "A persistência é o menor caminho do êxito". (Charles Chaplin) RESUMO Atualmente, o ensino de contabilidade tem passado por mudanças significativas, tais como crescimento expressivo no número de cursos de Ciências Contábeis e o consequente aumento no número de vagas ofertadas, bem como as mudanças nos padrões contábeis no Brasil (MIRANDA, 2011). Nesse cenário, depara-se com um histórico de desempenho obtido pelos estudantes de Ciências Contábeis desde o Provão até o ENADE 2012, não muito favorável.

“…It was found that students' performance in a required course at the freshman level is strongly related to individual academic success [6], [8]. Prior research shows that admissions criteria such as aptitude test scores and high school grade point average (GPA) have direct impacts on students' performance in higher education [9], [10]. However, [6] found that the number of passes in the admission tests were not a factor in predicting academic success, and suggested that the quality of passes, which could be divided into levels, might be a better indicator.…”

As the number of higher educational institutions are on the rise, student recruitments and reputation building have become more competitive among them. While there are many practices that one could do to compete with others, the most promising approach would be strengthening its own academic profiling. There have been many research works on finding effective predictors of students' success; however, very few studies were done on Thai academic institutions. Therefore, this research work focused on investigating predicting factors of students' academic performance at Mae Fah Luang University, a newly established university in Thailand. We proposed three possible factors: activity hours, English scores, and number of students admitted. The results point out that students' success could be stimulated through activities outside the classroom, and that the first year's English class performance has a relatively strong level of significant in predicting students' overall academic performance. While the total number of students admitted gave mixed results, it could be a guideline for the university to carefully review its academic policy and admissions structures to enhance the students' quality and hence the university's reputation.
